Belinelli netted 15 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 21 minutes in the Spurs' 117-110 loss to the Magic on Sunday.

Belinelli has now rattled off four straight double-digit scoring efforts as a key source of offense off the Spurs bench. The veteran sharpshooter is encouragingly averaging 9.7 shot attempts per contest over an average of 22.2 minutes, an aggressive usage ratio that is helping him to the highest full-season scoring average of his career (11.9).

Belinelli poured in 14 points (5-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 23 minutes in the Spurs' 120-90 win over the Suns on Wednesday.

The veteran sharpshooter saw another solid allotment of playing time in the blowout win and produced, posting his fourth double-digit scoring effort over the last five games in the process. Belinelli has seen at least 20 minutes in all but one game this season, typically giving him enough time to generate solid production through his aggressive style on offense.

Belinelli netted 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals across 23 minutes in the Spurs' 113-108 overtime win over the Mavericks on Monday.

Belinelli's scoring total led the Spurs bench and served as his third double-digit scoring total over the last four games. The 32-year-old has been solid off the bench thus far in his return to San Antonio following a three-season absence, but he's currently posting his lowest shooting percentage (38.9) since the 2015-16 campaign. Belinelli continues to have some fantasy utility in deeper formats for his scoring and three-point shooting contributions, although his minutes don't figure to often exceed the 21.3 he's averaging thus far through six games.

Belinelli agreed Sunday to a two-year, $12 million contract with the Spurs, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

After stops in Sacramento, Charlotte, Atlanta and Philadelphia over the past three seasons, Belinelli returns to San Antonio, where he won an NBA championship while suiting up for the Spurs between 2013 and 2015. The 32-year-old averaged a career-high 12.1 points in 24.3 minutes per game in 2017-18, but may have to settle for a smaller role upon rejoining San Antonio.
